| Soundwave said: I don't know honestly if kids/teenagers will even take the 3DS successor seriously if it has a SD screen. By 2016/17, even $99.99 cheapo/kids tablets will have HD displays as standard. Nintendo's free to do what they want, but if they want to continue to see their handheld userbase decline, staying out of touch with the modern market and having a handheld that's far lower resolution than the standard phone/tablet is a good way to ensure they will lose even more customers next cycle. They're eventually going to get to a point where they're selling all their hardware to 35+ year old Nintendo fans if they continue on the path they're on now who grew up in the "glory days" of the 90s. |
It really depends on sizes of screen. To make certain resolutions worth it you need certain size screen for your eye to resolve. There is not much point making tiny screens with HD.
